It is a warm night for January and the kids are outside playing with a tree frog before bedtime.

William catches the frog first!

 The girls told him to kiss the frog

Now Mulan was passing the frog to Rapunzel and...

the frog jumped on Hannah. The girls laughed so hard!

A fun morning running in puddles!

Emily wet after a big jump!

William's turn for...

a huge jump!

 Hannah's jump!

 Emily runs with her eyes closed!

 Cowboy is quite wet-he had fun running in the puddles and chasing the kids!

William then enjoyed finding worms

Not sure who is more excited about the dog bed-Cowboy or the kids?

A scooter ride to the pond!

Emily with Cowboy

Taking a rest break from our walk and giving William lots of kisses!

Our first Daffodil is blooming!

Cowboy now listens to the girls when they say and sign, "Sit!"

An afternoon to walk on the beach!

Hannah excited to find so many seashells!

"Can we keep them, please!"

Poor William has been sick since Monday night with a GI bug and now he has a cold.  He did not last long on the beach before needing to be carried by Dada.

Emily loves the Beach!

Cowboy loves chasing his tail!

It is so exhausting being a puppy!

Cowboy even finds the Princess couch as a lazy spot!

We are ready for the big game!

The kids lined up for a piece of LSU cookie cake.

Just a little tension in the room...

Ready for the Half-Time Fireworks Show in our backyard!

 The kids lined up for sparklers!

The girls enjoying a tea party

 Around 9 pm the girls snuggled up to watch The Little Mermaid and the boys watched Cars 2 in William's room.  With 7 kids in the house it was actually quiet for the adults to watch the end of the game.

Bill had a huge fireworks show to celebrate another National Championship!

 Cowboy loves bath time!

 William lost his fifth tooth!

William putting his tooth in his Tooth Fairy Pillow with a little help from Cowboy!

 We spent the New Year's Weekend at Pappy and Mimi's with our cousins!

 Fun with Fireworks!

The kids loved the sparklers and snap pops!

The kids opening presents like it is Christmas Morning!

 Then time for the boys to go hunting!

William was very excited to wear his camoflauge!

 While the boys were away the girls had an icecream party!

Then more presents!

 Then more fireworks...

and more sparklers!

 Kaitlyn loved the sparklers!

Pappy and Mimi with their grandchildren

 William loved holding Sara

Hannah giving a big goodbye hug!

 Emily saying goodbye with a few tickles

Then the kids are hiding in the tree because they do not want to leave Pappy and Mimi's house.  They had a "super duper fun" weekend.
